Thoughts of a Lost Man; Tears of a Forgotten Child
This book of poems came to fruition as an introspective investigation the riddle of pain that was supplanted at the center of my core. Throughout my life I always wondered why I had this aching pain of loss, neglect, abandonment, and the sense of yearning for love but never received it. Why was I so unlovable or felt this way? What would I use an alternative to fill that vacancy in my soul? So as I walked through the corridor of my incarceration I realized that I was in prison before I came to prison. I order to set myself free I must find that child that was left behind and save him so the man can have a promising future. I realized that this pain was multidimensional and complex and before the healing can begin, the pain became immeasurable and nearly defeated me. Yet, when I discovered the forgotten child and consoled him the lost man was visible and began to heal. Thus, became the birth of these poems that was healing conversation between the two who are one.

Unwritten Routes
The stadium lights hit differently when you know nobody expected you to be here. Unwritten Routes follows the journey of a young Black student-athlete caught between expectations and identity. In a world that boxes him in, in classrooms, locker rooms, and even at home, football becomes more than a game. It's an outlet, a language, a mirror. But when an injury sidelines him, and friendships begin to shift, he's forced to face what he's been avoiding: Who is he when the cleats come off? Through curbside talks, tough love at home, and mentorship, he begins to redefine success on his terms. It's not just about touchdowns or scholarships anymore; it's about healing, growth, and reclaiming his story in a world that tried to write it for him. Unwritten Routes is a natural, reflective coming-of-age story about resilience, self-worth, and the journey to becoming more than what they expected, even if the map didn't exist yet.The stadium lights hit differently when you know nobody expected you to be here. Not your teachers, not the recruiters who barely glanced your way. Football was supposed to be my way out, my escape from the weight of expectations, from the quiet stares in the classroom, from the feeling that I had to prove something just to exist. But it didn't matter how many yards I rushed or how many touchdowns I scored. Off the field, I was just another Black kid trying to figure out where I fit. Between school, practice, and navigating a world that already had me labelled, I had to learn who I was before someone else decided for me. And that? That was the hardest game I've ever had to play.
